A comprehensive course for psychiatrists ready to transform the way they care for women

Are you seeing more women in your practice struggling with anxiety, depression, brain fog, and executive dysfunction—only to discover it’s hormonally driven? You’re not alone. Hormones matter more than we’ve been taught in psychiatry.

  • You were never taught this in training—but your patients need it now. It’s time to bridge the gap between psychiatry and hormones.

  • Are you ready to offer a modern root-cause approach to mental health for midlife women?

  • This course is for you if you treat women in their 30s to 60s and suspect hormones are a key driver of mental health issues AND you want to safely prescribe and manage HRT as part of your psychiatric toolbox.
